Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this paint indoors?

No, this product is specifically formulated for outdoor use.

Do I need a separate primer?

No, the 2-in-1 formula acts as both a primer and a topcoat.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint touch-dries in approximately 1 hour and can be recoated after 4 hours.

How much area does one 750ml tin cover?

A 750ml tin covers up to 5 square meters on average.

Can I apply this over non-metal surfaces?

The product is designed for metal; for specialized surfaces like zinc or aluminum, apply a compatible primer first.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Use Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners to clean tools, as standard soap and water will not work with this solvent-based paint.

Troubleshooting

Paint is sagging or running

You are likely applying too much paint at once. Apply thinner coats and ensure even coverage without over-applying.

Reaction occurring on existing paint

If the test patch reacts (e.g., bubbles or lifts), you must strip the old paint completely before applying Hammerite.

Slow drying time

Ensure the application temperature is within the recommended 8°C to 25°C range and that humidity is low.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for a separate primer
  • Provides up to 8 years of rust protection
  • Textured finish masks surface irregularities
  • Excellent weather resistance for outdoor metal
  • Simple application process

Cons

  • Not suitable for indoor use
  • Strong odor due to solvent base
  • Requires proper surface preparation for best results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all dirt, dust, and grease are removed using a diluted detergent and that the surface is completely dry. For non-ferrous metals like zinc or aluminum, use a specialized primer before applying Hammerite.

During application, stir the paint lightly rather than shaking it vigorously to maintain the consistency of the hammered effect. After finishing, clean your brushes using dedicated Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners. Always store the tin in a cool place, tightly closed, and keep it away from open flames or high heat sources as it contains flammable components.
